We consider non-conforming discretizations of the stationary Stokes equation in three spatial dimensions by Crouzeix-Raviart type elements. The original definition in the seminal paper by M. Crouzeix and P.-A. Raviart in 1973 is implicit…

The Crouzeix-Raviart triangular finite elements are $\inf$-$\sup$ stable for the Stokes equations for any mesh with at least one interior vertex. This result affirms a {\em conjecture of Crouzeix-Falk} from 1989 for $p=3$. Our proof applies…
Most classical finite element schemes for the (Navier-)Stokes equations are neither pressure-robust, nor are they inf-sup stable on general anisotropic triangulations. A lack of pressure-robustness may lead to large velocity errors,…
In this paper, we prove that Crouzeix-Raviart finite elements of polynomial order $p\geq5$, $p$ odd, are inf-sup stable for the Stokes problem on triangulations. For $p\geq4$, $p$ even, the stability was proved by \'{A}. Baran and G. Stoyan…

The Scott-Vogelius element is a popular finite element for the discretization of the Stokes equations which enjoys inf-sup stability and gives divergence-free velocity approximation. However, it is well known that the convergence rates for…
In this paper, we propose a discretization for the (nonlinearized) compressible Stokes problem with a linear equation of state $\rho=p$, based on Crouzeix-Raviart elements. The approximation of the momentum balance is obtained by usual…
In recent years a great deal of attention has been paid to discretizations of the incompressible Stokes equations that exactly preserve the incompressibility constraint. These are of substantial interest because these discretizations are…
The resolution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is tricky, and it is well known that one of the major issue is to compute a divergence free velocity. The non-conforming Crouzeix-Raviart finite element are convenient since they…
We construct several stable finite element pairs for the Stokes problem on barycentric refinements in arbitrary dimensions. A key feature of the spaces is that the divergence maps the discrete velocity space onto the the discrete pressure…
We present first-order nonconforming Crouzeix-Raviart discretizations for the nonlinear generalized Stokes equations with $(r,\epsilon)$-structure. Thereby the velocity-errors are independent of the pressure-error; i.e., the method is…

We present a modification of the Crouzeix-Raviart discretization of the Stokes equations in arbitrary dimension which is quasi-optimal, in the sense that the error of the discrete velocity field in a broken $H^1$-norm is proportional to the…
The paper shows an inf-sup stability property for several well-known 2D and 3D Stokes elements on triangulations which are not fitted to a given smooth or polygonal domain. The property implies stability and optimal error estimates for a…
The velocity solution of the incompressible Stokes equations is not affected by changes of the right hand side data in form of gradient fields. Most mixed methods do not replicate this property in the discrete formulation due to a…
